[laughs]

[laughs] Um, but look, yeah, we, we've had more wins than we had since 2019, I think, so we're, we're, we're building.

We got a lot of stuff we wanna... need to work on still.

Yeah, our last two weeks and our last two wins, to be fai- fair, haven't been, um, you know, setting the world on fire.

We're lucky to get away with one against, uh, West Coast Eagles.

Um, and last week we thought we did some really good things, but fell away, um, in the, in the last quarter where we could have really kicked on.

So yeah, we, we're still chasing those four-quarter efforts, um, so we can con- con- con- continue to put ourselves in those situations, Joey, where, you know, if it... we start winning and continue to win, that would, yeah, certainly put ourselves in that position to go for wild card.

How good is Coop- Cooper Trembath gonna be? Because we've loved the early signs in, in his career so far, but, um, he looks like he could take the competition by storm.

What do you think helped you when you moved away and really allowed you to flourish in that system?

Yeah, it was challenging to be completely honest.

You know, coming down to Melbourne, middle of winter, doing ice baths, swimming in the ocean, all those things that, you know, I just wasn't used to.

But the one thing that helped me set up really well, I was very fortunate when I first got drafted, I got put in with the host family, Jim and Kay Watts.

You know, Ferg Watts ended up playing at St Kilda and played at Adelaide, drafted to Adelaide.

And I got put in a family home that had, you know, they had three young kids, Jim and Kay, you know, are a great family for me to help me out to settle in for those first six to 12 months.

And really that took a lot of weight, you know, off me trying to find my own feet as an 18-year-old kid coming to Melbourne.
